Definitions

  • the driving wheels 123 may be provided on both left and right sides of the cleaner main body 110 , respectively.
  • a single driving wheel 123 may be provided at one section of the cleaner main body 110 of the cleaner main body 110 .
  • the cleaner main body 110 may be moved or rotated forward, backward, to the left, or to the right by operation of the driving wheels 123 .
  • the driving wheels 123 may be configured to be driven independently of each other. To this end, each of the driving wheels 123 may be driven by a different driving motor 122 b .
  • the driving wheels 123 may receive a driving force from a single driving motor 122 b.
  • the wheel assembly 120 may include a driving module 122 for generating a driving force, the driving wheel 123 that is configured to be rotatable based on receiving the driving force from the driving module 122 , and a wheel cover 121 provided to cover upper (e.g., in a direction away from the floor surface being cleaned) portions of the driving module 122 and the driving wheel 123 .
  • the particular positioned of the driving wheel 123 within the wheel assembly 120 with respect to the floor may vary depending on a state or condition of the floor while the cleaner main body 110 travels.
  • the driving wheel 123 may move up and down between the first compressed state illustrated in FIG. 10 and the second state illustrated in FIG. 11 depending on, for example, whether the driving wheel 123 contacts the floor while the cleaner main body 110 is traveling.
  • the elastic members 124 b may also elastically support the driving module 122 connected to the driving wheel 123 .
  • any reference in this specification to “one embodiment,” “an embodiment,” “example embodiment,” etc. means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment.
  • the appearances of such phrases in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment.
